Lots of local services in Central Asia depend on it for communication and operations via telegram bots.<p>We just lost hundreds of orders during lunch rush hour. Users couldn't place orders via bots. The orders that were placed via mobile app or website were still sent to managers via Telegram bots. Of course, restaurant managers didn't see the orders and couriers didn't get anything as a result.<p>But that's nothing compared to our neighboring bot only taxi service. I think they lost thousands of orders and hundreds of drivers didn't get paid. Lesson learned: don't put all your eggs in one basket.
